Blow hole in the front of my INTERCOOLER

Fixittt · 05-09-2002, 06:11 PM

Ok, I am testing my FTP site for hosting, going to see what impact it has on my DSL.

And to see if I can host pics.

So here is the blow hole setup I did to my intercooler.

I would think that this means it toasted it.

so. . . intercooler. . . you put a hole in your car? I am confused. What is being called an intercooler now? I am used to useing one of those to cool down my turboed car.

the intercooler I am refering to is the case setup that Dtek customs sells

Very nice. It might be cool to put some kind of mesh air filter on there to keep from seeing your drives when the panel is up.

I thought about that, but the front is mostly down. And I have a blue brillo pad behind the second fan grill to act as a filter ant to keep from seeing my heatercore.

I am also going to be redoing the drive faces, so being able to see them in the future with the front up is a good thing.

if it were me, id remove the grill from the cover (you only need 1 grill lol), and add chrome trim around the covers hole to spice it up. you should be able to get chrome trim from your local auto parts store.

use the 2nd fan grill and make a mini-BBQ grill

What Mr. Fixitt needs

Is to make is a Spiral emblem the size of the hole in the slide cover out of a piece of copper flashing with the water pathways cut all the way thru (for air flow).

Jeez I'll bet you could even market them
